'System Preferences' gets hanged. Not able to change any settings.

I'm not able to change my wallpaper. Main issue is as soon as I open 'System Preferences', the window opens but I'm not able to click on anything. Not able to change any settings. Tried restarting but no help.
Please help.

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of this exercise is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. First, disconnect all wired peripherals except keyboard, mouse, and monitor, if applicable, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Be sure your Mac is shut down.
Press the power button.
Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including your login items.
Launch the application(s) and test. Same problem(s)?
After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode.)

Safari cannot open because the iPhone is not connected to internet. I do not believe I have changed any settings. I have turned off the phone and then on, but this did not work. Help?

For Safari to work, you need either Wi-Fi or cellular data.
Are you connected to a Wi-Fi hotspot?
If not is Settings > Mobile/Cellular > Mobile/Cellular Data: ON

I am not able to change any fonts when i add in titles

I just loaded the 10.0.1 to my MACBOOK PRO and started trying to edit a move. I pulled a standard title over a photo, but when i tried to change fonts and sizes, no luck. there is also a red diagional on thw color box and I don't get any alignment options showing. It almost seems that that function is disabled. I have tried various title with no luck. Is there someting I need to turn on to get that to work? I was having no problem changing title fonts and sizes wih the prevous version of imovie.

5. Click on the icon and Press "Cmd+V" to paste your new icon there
6. Close the window.
7. Go back to Macintosh HD>System>Library>CoreServices and look for the app called "Dock"
8. Right click "Dock.app" and select "Show Package Contents" and open "Contents"
9. Look for the Image called "finder.png" and copy it somewhere for back up.
10. Go to the image u copied and change the name to finder.png
11. Replace the finder.png in the Dock.app with your new one
12. Close all the windows
13. Open Terminal
14. Type this code in:

hi Jain,
you may need to check the transfer structures,
right click infosource and 'change', click 'comm.structure'/expand,
click 'transfer', move the 0BASE_UOM from left to right side,
or if you wont use the comm structure anymore, you can right click infosource and 'delete comm structure'
hope this helps.

Not able to change the data of test data containers in production system

Dear All,
We have created eCATT scripts in Development SolMan System and moved the transports to Production SolMan System. Customer wants to change the data at Test data containers and run the scripts in production system but we are not able to edit the data.
May be the reason is SCC4 transaction code has set the below option.
Changes and transports for client-specific Objects
u2022 No changes allowed
Customer doesnu2019t want to change the above option and wanted to change the test data containers to give different datau2019s and run the eCATT scripts.
Could you please let me know the solution for this?
Your help is really appreciated.
Thanks,
Mahendra

eCatt has the feature where you don't need to transport the scripts or test configuration to our target system. We can keep all our scripts and test data in Solman and run this script any other system in your landscape using the System data container and target system.
Maintain the production as one of the target system in System container in Solman and point that system while running the script. Change the test data in Solman to run this script.
Let me know if you need more information
thanks
Venkat

Not able to change the original system of the object

Hello
BW infosource was created in the system Q01 (test) and transported back to D01 (dev).
I would like to change original system from Q01 to D01 to enable object modification.
I am not able to change the original system of the object in the tran se03 as system is disabled.
Original System          Q01   (grey)
Any solution for this ?
thanks

hi,
before transporting maintain the settings in the Dev system as follows.
Open tcode RSA1 in dev system, from Menu goto -- tools -- Conversion of Logical system Names.
In this maintain the
Original source system                                   Target source system
Technical name of R/3 client of test              Technical name of R/3 client of dev system
This setting has to be maintained while transporting the changes to next system, this ensures that the objects are mapped to the correct source system name on importing and are replicated properly from them.
regards,
Arvind.

System Preferences menu have not change with the update

I just updated from 10.6.6 to 10.8.4 tonight and the first thing I noticed is the reversed scrolling (which is a horrid idea in my opinion for a laptop). I went to youtube and watched several videos showing me how to to my system preferences -> Track Pad -> Scrolling and Zooming tab -> Unselect natural Scrolling.
However, when I go to my system preferences -> Track Pad I only have one tab and it is the exact same as my 10.6.6 system preference menu and not the new one that everyone shows on the youtube videos.
How can I fix my system preferences to be updated and how can I go back to normal scrolling? Old habits are hard to die after 5-6 years on my laptop doing it the normal way...

Nevermind. I found a check box that is labeled "When using gestures to scroll or navigate, move content in the direction of finger movement." The box was found above the tracking speed and double click speed.
I am still curious on why I do not have the three tab options that everyone has.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
When your account becomes disabled, Apple provides the following recommendation:
"This message means that someone tried and failed to sign in to your account multiple times. The Apple ID system disables the account to prevent unauthorized people from gaining access to your information. You need to reset your password, following the instructions at the Apple ID website".
Visit iForgot.com and follow the instructions there.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")
Providing you are simply updating your existing details and not changing to another account, when you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your computer, you need to sign out of the account from your computer first, then sign back in using your updated details. (System Preferences > iCloud, click the sign out button)
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iTunes account on your iOS device, you need to sign out from your iOS device first, then sign back in using your updated details. (Settings > store, scroll down and tap your ID)

I am not able to change the object after upgrade(SPAU Activity).

HI All,
I am not able to change the object after upgrade(SPAU Activity). Please any one can tell what is the reason with below details.
You are not authorized to make changes
Message no. 37202
Diagnosis
You have no authorization for the authorization object 'S_DEVELOP', which would allow you to change the screen concerned.
There is also a second possibility:
You want to edit a modified SAP screen in a customer system after an upgrate (SAP transport). The screen remains locked for editing until the new SAP version and the customer version have been aligned (Transaction SPAU).
System Response
Authorizations are assigned to users in profiles. Profiles are stored in the user master record.
Procedure
Comsult your system administrator.
Thanks in Advance,
Mahesh Devershetty

Hi,
Does the user who would like to change the screen have the authorisation
for S_DEVELOP in his profile? Please run transaction /NSU53 after the
failed authorisation. You will get an information which authorisation
is missing.
Additional please check if you have open entries in transaction SPAU for
that object.
If you couldn´t solve the issue I need an user to analyse it in your
development system.
That user needs all authorisation for development and has to be
registrated as developer.
The system uses the authorization object S_DEVELOP for Workbench objects
can you please check your user master record whether it contains the
required autorization or not.
Please also ensure that modification adjustment is turned on as per note:
